Energy Code Solutions for Your Steel Building
With so many codes and regulations on the state and local level, that overlap and change on a regular basis, it’s difficult to keep up and comprehend them all. At Kirby, we have a dedicated team of energy experts equipped with the knowledge and tools to help you meet the necessary energy codes in the most cost-effective manner possible. From state codes to regional climate requirements for your metal building – we’ve got you covered.
ASHRAE 90.1 and IECC are the two most common energy codes used to outline minimum requirements for energy-efficient steel building construction. These two entities address energy conservation requirements for commercial and residential construction – including heating & ventilation, lighting, water heating, and power usage. However, many states are choosing to update their regulations and adhere to newer, more rigorous codes.
It is very important to review energy code regulations before starting a construction project – and that is where Kirby can help. Our dedicated energy team is available to assist you through this process.
